Current Schedule C and G indicators not recommended:<br />
1. Assessed property values<br />
Rationale: Assessment of property values is limited mainly to freehold land of<br />
which there is very little in the Central Coast and only slightly more (primarily<br />
Prince Rupert) in the North Coast. The value of the assessed property has much<br />
more to do with the general economy, e.g., Prince Rupert’s new container port,<br />
than provincial land use policy. The same will hold true for the freehold land in<br />
the Bella Coola valley if a major development takes place in or near the plan<br />
areas. In addition a large portion of the Central Coast population lives on lands<br />
that are not individually assessed (Indian Reserves). The same holds true for most<br />
communities in the North Coast excluding Prince Rupert.<br />
